WampServer

Hi,

Is there a way i could keep the mysql service running after closing wamp?

Thanks

Hi dapopeyoh.

Yes there is:


Edit \wamp\wampmanager.tpl

Find this section

[myexit]
;WAMPMYEXITSTART
Action: service; Service: wampapache; ServiceAction: stop; Flags: ignoreerrors
Action: service; Service: wampmysqld; ServiceAction: stop; Flags: ignoreerrors
Action:  exit
;WAMPMYEXITEND

No comment out the line for stopping 'wampapache' with a semi colon ';'

[myexit]
;WAMPMYEXITSTART
Action: service; Service: wampapache; ServiceAction: stop; Flags: ignoreerrors
;Action: service; Service: wampmysqld; ServiceAction: stop; Flags: ignoreerrors
Action:  exit
;WAMPMYEXITEND

Save the file.

right click the wampmanager icon and click 'Refresh'

Give it a couple of seconds to rebuild and then Exit wampmanager.

Check with your Services snapin that the wampmysql service is still running.
